🎯 Client Partner at Forte
At Forte, I help innovative companies deliver exceptional software by connecting them with top-tier global engineering talent. I lead strategic client relationships and oversee account success, ensuring delivery excellence across every stage of the talent journey — from initial scoping to ongoing growth and retention.
I focus on:
- Driving revenue through consultative client partnerships
- Ensuring high-quality delivery and client satisfaction
- Growing accounts through insight-driven support and collaboration
Before joining Forte, I was Account Executive at Nexton, where I led go-to-market strategy and managed a portfolio of tech clients hiring talent across Latin America. I consistently exceeded targets while building long-lasting, purpose-driven partnerships.
💼 I’ve also worked with great companies like Unimed, AB Inbev (Ambev), Solar BR Coca-Cola, and BairesDev, gaining a strong foundation in business intelligence, tech recruiting, and consultative sales.
✨ A few things about me:
- I speak near-native English and have volunteered as a TED translator and TEDx event organizer.
- I love helping people find their dream jobs, prepping for interviews, and navigating career transitions.
- I hold a Bachelor’s in Advertising and a Specialization in Big Data, though my path has evolved well beyond both.
🪐 Outside of work, you’ll find me exploring topics like astronomy, art, philosophy, and psychology — or making music on the piano, drums, or guitar. I'm also a proud parent of the world's most interesting 15yo, an animal lover, and a big fan of chocolate and ice cream.
I also recently relocated to Argentina from Brazil, so now I'm also a fan of mate and dulce de leche.
Because in the end, what’s the point of life if we’re not doing what we love?
